VPX REDLINE Fat Incinerator Liquid Gel Capsules, 120-Count Bottle Review

VPX REDLINE Fat Incinerator Liquid Gel Capsules, 120-Count Bottle
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Redline lives up to the hype, it gives me incredible energy, helps me have a better-longer workout and it really does make you sweat, but at the same time it also makes you feel cold, the feeling is hard to describe but the theory the manufacturer presents is that it makes your body burn more fat by making your body think it's cold. This is powerful stuff, the bottle says to take three pills, do not do that right away, I took two pills the first time and was awake for almost 24 hours and had heart palpitations, there are reports of people ending up in the hospital on their first dose because they took the recommended amount so please, just one pill to start, after taking it for a while now I can now take three pills without the shakes/nausea/palpitations and sleeplessnes. One thing that is confusing is the company boasts of "record weight loss up to 190lbs in 12 weeks, but then they also say not to take this product if you are more than 30lbs over weight?? I would say don't take this product if you don't like caffeine or if you have heart problems. That said, this stuff works, people say fat burners don't work but this one really does. I am also taking: ALA, CLA, Citrimax, Chromium Picolinate, Acai and doing 1 hour of cardio a day with good results.

ActiTrainer Personal Activity Monitor, Black Review

ActiTrainer Personal Activity Monitor, Black
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've been using my Actitrainer for over a week and have gone back and forth on whether I'm satisfied or not. First, I'll list the pro's: Pedometer seems to be accurate; heart rate monitor appears accurate and works well; product is small and can be conveniently worn without being noticeable; fairly easy to operate. Cons: The previous reviewer is right about the calculations not being based on heart rate. This was a real disappointment to me. While I was warned about activities such as weight lifting and cycling being grossly underestimated, I thought this would be useful to calculate calories burned during aerobics/dance type workouts. Calories are calculated, but seem very under-estimated. And if I stop periodically for weightlifting or calisthenics, even though my heart rate is maintained, the calorie burn shows as 0. That leads to the next drawback which is the online service that you can subscribe to for $9.95/month. Software for Actitrainer Client comes with the product for free, but doesn't allow you to display your data. The only way to actually display and track your data is use the Virtual Trainer product. In my opinion, for $200, this could have been provided as free software, not an online service. As for the website, I see improvements that could be made, but it seems that updates are constantly being made, so I'll probably suggest additional features for what it's worth.
The meal tracker section of web page was awkward. On my first day, I got a runtime error and was unable to enter my calories in. It would be very helpful if there were a way to make some manual adjustments to the calories burned totals also. For instance, knowing that you can't wear the trainer while swimming or that you don't get the full calories burned for aerobics, we could still estimate the numbers and manually adjust them on the web. That way, our calorie deficits and other graphs would be more accurate.
The sleep tracker is an interesting feature, but again you have to subscribe to use it. This isn't a feature I would use regularly however. I really like the way you can display detailed minute-by-minute info on your workouts to show heart rates, calories burned per minute, etc. There's also a lot of detail when you're in lifestyle mode. Again, all of this looks accurate.
All in all, I think this product should have cost less and should not require the online subscription. Compared to what I had researched on similar products, I think this works comparably if not better, but the price is higher. Ideally, I still think the Body Bugg would have been what I wanted, but it comes with a heftier price tag and requires the user to wear a big armband all the time, as well as subscribe to an even more expense website.

Premier Protein - High Protein Ready To Drink Shakes, 18-11oz shakes Review

Premier Protein - High Protein Ready To Drink Shakes, 18-11oz shakes
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I drink one of these after coming home from the gym. They're filling and quite satisfying and I don't feel the need to eat anything else. They're best ice cold although the instructions say not to freeze them, so I stick a cold one from the fridge in to the freezer for just a few minutes as soon as I get home, and by the time I've changed out of my sweaty work-out clothes, it's really ice cold without actually being frozen.
160 calories - 30 from fat; total fat 3 grams; 5 grams carbs; 1 gram sugar; 3 grams fiber; 30 grams protein; 330 mg sodium; 680 mg potassium; no high fructose corn syrup. However, FYI, this does contain some calcium caseinate just in case you are not in favor of using calcium caseinate as a protein source.
I buy the chocolate flavor which is quite yummy, not artificial tasting and tastes like thick, chocolate milk - especially when ice cold as mentioned above. I've never tried any other flavors except the chocolate.
This price and shipping seem very expensive, but I buy them at one of the membership big-box warehouse type places (that begins with the letter "C") for a much better and more reasonable price.

Vega Meal Replacement Review

Vega Meal Replacement
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I am a certified nutritionist and raw vegan of over 5 years. I began studying nutrition as a quest to cure my wife of Hashimoto's Thyroiditis after "doctors" told us she would have no choice but to take a pill every day for the rest of her life. She has been cured for over 3-1/2 years now (the "doctors" are baffled), all because we eat food that actually contains REAL nutrition, including VEGA WFHO. VEGA Whole Food Health Optimizer is simply the best nutrition product sold anywhere outside of an organic farmer's market! It is nutrient-dense but not calorie-dense, so it's great for people who are looking to lose a little (or a lot of) body fat without starving themselves. It is also perfect for athletes or those who live a very active lifestyle as it will decrease recovery time. Most nutritional supplements contain laboratory engineered isolates which cause the body to work HARDER to use them and in fact drain your body of valuable energy. VEGA WFHO is nutritionally complete, made from WHOLE FOODS, resulting in a synergistic effect that you will FEEL within your first two days of consuming it. It has no harmful animal fats or proteins and is also free of all common allergens such as soy and gluten.[...].

Gaiam Total Body Balance Ball Kit (55cm) Review

Gaiam Total Body Balance Ball Kit (55cm)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
My husband mistakenly bought me a small exercise ball for Christmas and I, being a little shy of six feet tall, couldn't use it. So, I returned it for this set and I couldn't be happier. The ball itself comes with a really easy to use hand pump and has a nice, sticky finish to it that clings to my hardwood floor like a yoga mat. I was only really looking for a yoga ball, but the theraband and DVDs were great to get with this kit as well.
The DVD is also a wonderful tool to have. The main workout dvd focuses on legs, arms and abs. WHOA does it target your muscles! I was amazed at the amount of muscle isolation and how this seemingly "easy" set of moves really targeted my muscles. It was a great workout- wonderfully shot, nicely explained and just fun to do. I can't wait to add it to my exercise regimen.

I ordered this item, but it never came, because I had a P.O. Box. That was a good thing, because I ended up buying the Pro 7 Activator from ProForm.It was 399 at COSTCO with a large vibration plate and weights too, and I am glad I never got this item, and got with a little bit more money and free shipping something better.

M.R.I. WAR, 1 Lb. 5 Oz Tub Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Dont expect Muscle in a bottle, but its pretty decent stuff...Allows you to push yourself...and pretty refreshing, especially when your winded from a big boy set...
It has your BCAA's and your Creatine (Pyruvate I think ? )..and some other stuff... so all you do is keep watering down the solution, to have a constant supply for your whole workout..and a scoop after...doesnt taste too bad, lasted about 4 weeks since I didnt take it on rest days (The weekend)...Ive gotten bigger, but I used this during a new program and some other supplements...so cant say if its this.
In summation, makes it easier to get your BCAAs (they call them AARM - Amino acid blend) and Creatine (Called Crea-Charge)...didnt notice anything about Heat Shock aminos...

Sunny Crazy Fit Massager Review

Sunny Crazy Fit Massager
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This item could be a good piece of equipment if it worked. Sometimes it goes and sometimes it does not. Based on the fact that the seller offered that I could return it but never followed up with any type of shipping label after many emails. So I am stuck with the equipment that has no warranty, repair dealers information, or assistance from the seller. I advised the seller that I would wait to hear from them before submitting my feedback for the benefit of a doubt but have not heard a word back from them so this would not be a seller I would consider in the future. The product should be purchased through a retailer that will back up the equipment in the event that this is just a gliche in this particular machine otherwise buyers will just be out of luck and money. Not a good way of doing business or keeping clients.

CalPal Pocket-Sized Digital Calorie Tracker, New for 2009 Not a pedometer Review

CalPal Pocket-Sized Digital Calorie Tracker, New for 2009 Not a pedometer
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
At first I thought this little gadget had a database with a lot of different foods and that it would list the calorie content of all of the foods. I thought it would also track my calories. I was right about tracking the calories, but not about it having a database. Instead it came with a book which listed the calorie content in common foods. The book is ok, but I like to figure out calories with [...]. I was disappointed at first when I found out I would have to figure out the calorie content of my foods on my own, but after a week of using it, I love it!! I've already lost three pounds! It really helps me to keep track of my calorie consumption and burning. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to lose weight. Just be careful not to go too low on your calories and eat healthy foods...they have less calories anyway!!

Nature's Bounty L-Arginine 500mg, Capsules 50 ea Review

Nature's Bounty L-Arginine 500mg, Capsules 50 ea
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Arginine is an effective amino acid. It's popular with body builders due to the fact that it increases their "pump". Basically a pump is how pumped up they and their body are. Your pump helps you push through reps you usually couldn't and therefore you're pushing your limits more, leading to better results. Personally I've found that stacking this with creatine, N.O., and caffeine provides me with one of the best pumps I've achieved. I recommend anyone looking for a slightly better pump to try arginine and see where it takes you.

Chin-Up/Sit-Up Bar Review

Chin-Up/Sit-Up Bar
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
It works fine once you get it installed, though I've only used it for sit-ups so far. There are 4 brackets (metal cup things) that you have to screw into a door-frame---2 low, 2 high, so you can switch from sit-ups to chin-ups. The foam doesn't slide easily, but if you try hard enough you can get it to move. I recommend using a hammer to start the screws, then a phillips-head screwdriver (the + one) to finish putting the screws in. There are 3 screws per cup, plus washers. It is kind of a lot to do just to install a bar, but when you're done at least it's there and it works. Make use of it =)

BluFire BA90 Digital Body Fat Analyzer, Soft White Review

BluFire BA90 Digital Body Fat Analyzer, Soft White
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have been using the BluFire BA-90 for 7+ months and I think it's fantastic.
First, about me... I exercise regularly. I run and lift weights and also play soccer. I have owned a regular bathroom scale before, but I had never owned or used a body fat scale prior to using the BluFire BA90.
Setup is a breeze. I was able to enter my age, weight, and height no problem.
Here's what I like best about the product:
-Test results are consistent. If I test myself several times in a row, I get the same body fat percentage each time. In fact, I've never had two different readings when testing myself twice back-to-back. And when I go away for a weekend, throw back some drinks, and test myself on Monday, the body fat percentage has nudged up 1-2%. I can assume this is the case from a simple "pinch test" but it's definitely cool (and informative) to see the exact body fat percentage.
-It's fast and easy. It takes about 7-10 seconds from the time I step on the scale to when weight and body fat percentage are displayed. Prior to using this initially, I thought it would take longer. But it is quick and easy, which makes me more likely to randomly jump on the scale any given day.
-It keeps working. I have used it several times a week for over seven months and it's good as new.
All in all, I'm very happy with the product and definitely recommend it to others.

I found this product at Sam's Club and tried it. I lost 20 pounds in 5 weeks. I only had to lose the spare tire I had around the middle. I went from 215 pounds down to 195 pounds. I replaced breakfast, ate a hearty lunch, and replaced dinner. I think one of the keys is drinking lots of water. During this time I drank from 3/4 to a whole gallon of water a day. I mixed the meal replacement with soy milk. Sam's Club stopped carrying it so now I'll be ordering from here. I introduced this product to several coworkers both male and female. They've all had good results. I personally didn't exercise while losing this weight.
